3. Introduction:
Currently available modes of transportation are:
 Rail
 Road
 Water
 Air
What is a Hyperloop?
Hyperloop is a proposed mode of passenger and cargo transportation
that propels a capsule-like vehicle through a near-vacuum tube at
more than airline speed.

4. Construction:
 Components involved in the
construction of the hyperloop
are:
1. Capsule/Pod
• A coach pressurized at
atmospheric pressure.
• Free of air resistance or friction
inside the tube.
Fig: Components inside Capsule

5. • The capsule can carry 28
passengers at a time .
• It send at a very high speed.
• There are two version of
capsule.

6. 2. Tube
• Made of steel.
• This structure is supported by
pillars.
• Solar arrays are provided on the
top of the tubes.

7. 3. Suspension
• Air bearing suspension offers stability.
• Air bearing suspension offers extremely low drag at a feasible
cost.
• A stiff air bearing suspension is superb for reliability and safety.

8. 4. Compressor
• Supplies the air to the air
bearings.
• Motor- 436 hp is used

9. 5. Propulsion system
• Linear induction motor is used.
• Rotor is on capsule and stator is mounted on the tube.

10. Working:
 Magnetic levitation.
 Creating a low pressure.
 Further reduction in air
resistance.

12. Advantages:
 Pollution free.
 Saves the travelling time,
energy and even cost.
 There is no problem of traffic.
 Powered by the solar panel.
 No effect of weather condition.
 Eco friendly
Disadvantages:
 Turning will be critical.
 High speed might cause
dizziness in some passenger.
 High initial installation cost.
 Complex design.

13. Conclusions:
 The Hyperloop would be the first truly revolutionary new
transportation system that could radically reduce the time and
cost for travel and transport between nearby cities.
 Additional technological developments in Hyperloop and
further optimization could likely reduce the price even further.
 As the global population is increasing and the environmental values
are declining, a better mass transport system like Hyperloop is
definitely essential in this world.
